Make your own gear
Published:
Everyone loves a hike in the woods. But as someone who is also interested in multi-day backcountry camping, I recognize the importance of carrying proper backpacking gears in order to staying warm and dry on the trails and under changing weather conditions. Unfortunately, quality gears can be expensive and more often than not, outdoor clothing don't fit me well. Having some DIY experience, I started looking into ways to make my own gears. Make-your-own-gear or MYOG is in fact a common practice in the hiking community, dating back to the days before outdoor gear and clothing companies became a thing.
